World of Perceptions

“Staring into the water.
Reflections of self-image.
Rippled by another’ s finger.
Hold on a little longer,
And look yourself in the eye.!” – Dilpreeta

English is amongst the wordiest languages. Perhaps the wordiest. It boasts of a million plus words. 80% of which are borrowed from other languages. Contrast it with French, which has some 10,000 words. An average educated english-speaking person has a basket of 20,000 words! Although we use about 2000 words a week. Words fall into categories and patterns. I have attempted to put together a list of word classification which, in practice, are easy to identify with and often used, but their nomenclature is not necessarily so.
